Hi Brian -
It may indeed be a problem only when netbootmond first starts up.
Hmmm. If you leave netbootmond unchanged, and simply make sure it's started prior to installing any nodes, does it do the right thing for you?
It may be that the best fix in this case is better documentation.
I'd be concerned about tailing any "old" lines from the log file, as you could end up adding entries for hosts that had been installed long ago. If we can resolve this by documenting it better, with a "WARNING: Make sure that netbootmond is started _before_ you begin your installs." that'd be great.
I'd successfully autoinstalled several nodes earlier today, w/ my zero-length ./scripts/imaging_complete file in place. As a result of your mail, I removed the ./scripts/imaging_complete file, and re-autoinstalled the nodes. netbootmond did its thing, creating the local-boot files.
Can you send me a copy of your log file?
The relevant portion of the log file looks as follows:
2004/06/02 17:35:12 [22260] Global parameter log file found in service section!
2004/06/02 17:35:12 [22260] rsync on scripts/imaging_complete from n3 (172.20.0.3)
2004/06/02 17:35:12 [22260] link_stat "imaging_complete" (in scripts) failed: No such file or directory
2004/06/02 17:35:12 [22260] rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(397)
Appreciate your continued attention on this.
Regards.

However, it is ugly, and I'll probably do something about that in the code.
Do you have "NET_BOOT_DEFAULT = local" set in your /etc/systemimager/systemimager.conf file on your server?
Yes. And I've restarted the service several times for good measure. ;-) If I drop a zero length "scripts/imaging_complete" file, then netbootmond does its thing.

Hi -
No, I've not received any responses. I've looked on the rsync.samba site, and see references to the same message, but w/ no listed resolution.
Thoughts?
Thanks.
-Steve.

Thus spake Steve Grandinetti ([EMAIL PROTECTED]):
When the autoinstall script executes the following line near the end of the image distribution process:
rsync $IMAGESERVER::scripts/imaging_complete > /dev/null 2>&1
I get the following *3* lines in my rsyncd.conf:
2004/04/27 16:01:29 [5810] rsync on scripts/imaging_complete from poker.lkg.hp.com (16.118.32.119)
2004/04/27 16:01:30 [5810] link_stat /imaging_complete : No such file or directory
2004/04/27 16:01:30 [5810] rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(372)
And the client spits out the following:
rsync <image_server_IP>::scripts/imaging_complete
client: nothing to do: perhaps you need to specify some filenames or the --recursive option?
rsync error: partial transfer (code 23) at main.c(594)
And, since netbootmond is only looking for the one line that has the "scripts/imaging_complete" string (the first of these three), netbootmond isn't doing it's thing to allow installed clients to boot locally upon next boot.
The rsync's of the image occurred w/out hitch prior to executing this command. The rsync deamon is indeed running, and /etc/systemimager/rsyncd.conf is standard/stock:
list = yes timeout = 600 dont compress = *.gz *.tgz *.zip *.Z *.ZIP *.bz2 *.deb *.rpm *.dbf uid = root gid = root use chroot = yes log file = /var/log/systemimager/rsyncd # # For additional security, modify and uncomment this line. See # "man rsyncd.conf" for details. # #hosts allow = 127.0.0.0/24 MY_NET/NETMASK MY_CLIENT/32
[boot] path = /usr/share/systemimager/boot
[overrides] path = /var/lib/systemimager/overrides
[scripts] path = /var/lib/systemimager/scripts
[base-image] path=/var/lib/systemimager/images/base-image
Any thougts on why rsync is outputting these additional lines?
Thanks much.
